******************** WORKIN' CHEAP *******************
written by Troy Seals and Max D. Barnes
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Verse 1:
BA
Every since the day i was big enough to put my pants on by myself
DA
You could find me somewhere with the radio turned on
BA
Then one night i gave my heart to an old beat up guitar
DEA
It never left my arms till i was almost grown

Verse 2:
BA
I had to try my hand as a workin man,tried to be my daddy's son
DA
But my mind was packed and gone and headed south
BA
Momma said i'll pray for you,then she said goodbye
DEA
To the only one out of seven that didn't work out
Chorus:
DA
Now i'm way down hear in dixie playing honky tonk music
EA
Keepin' some joint a jumpin' every night of the week
DA
Lord knows it's hard to keep a dance hall women happy
DEA
When you're drinkin' a little too much and you're workin' cheap
Verse 3:
BA
Well i ain't done a thing i can brag about to anyone back home
DA
Just another night club singer with a real good band
BA
If a jealous woman don't kill me,and momma keeps on praying
DEA
Someday i might be more than what i am
Chorus.
DEA
When you're drinkin' a little too much and you're workin' cheap
